What do ya think of this plan of attack???

[Hinduhammer]

Hey guys, id first like to thank everyone thats been helpful on this site, and think that there is a great community of folks on here, and that I wish I could attend AOD...

I was just hoping if I could get some input on the current plan of action in Vegas for my July trip.

Anyhows, we'll be in vegas from July 21 (wed) until July 24th (sat morning) celebrating the life and birthday of my brother (he passed away a few months ago before he could turn 21 and I promised him a party so i intend to keep that promise...) so there is going to be around 15 people coming, many of whom don't know each other super well (we all knew my bro, somewhat aquatinted w/ each other)

Wed- Either Wasted Space with the drink all you can drink passes, or lavo with some hookah service.
I kind of want wednesday to be a get to know each other, a little more laid back kind of night, have a good time but nothing too nuts.

Thursday Morning- chill, recover, possibly tao beach or just strip walking/ gambling

Thursday Night- I was thinking of doing Tao with bottle service (some people have a little bit of a tight budget, and I've seen that Tao has slightly lower min bottle prices than other places)

Friday morning- Ditch Fridays- Was wondering if there was any way of getting in fast? like a wanttickets kind of thing?

Friday Night- Can't decide between Vanity, XS, or Haze or palms clubs, what do you guys thinks

Saturday morning- Wet and then go home

Id really like some input guys, really appreciate the info!

I think that your plan of action it great! On Friday night you should definitely hit up The Palms! I know that ever time I bring my friends there they have the time of there life's! It always provides the ultimate high because everyone is always on there toes! One second you’re walking into rain and the other sec your deciding what top of the line nightclub you want to go to next. Moon, Ghost Bar, or Playboy Club! Plus all of Palms nightclubs have there own distinct flavor!

sorry to hear of your loss. I think that is wonderful you will be celebrating his life in Vegas.

For your first night, since you said the guys don't all know each other, how about instead of paying for tickets or bottle service, going to a nice restaurant instead, or a lounge that is not as loud? You can ask everyone in advance to share a personal story about your brother. It's a good way to get everyone to connect on a deeper level, then afterwards, you can hit a random club. I haven't been to wasted space, but Lavo is kinda crowded, and for your intent, i would suggest Revolution in the Mirage over Lavo (but definitely get more opinions on this)

Based on what I've read on here, for your Friday night, Palms seems to be a good bet for a group of guys if you get those wristband passes.

+1 to everything kori said. Id go to a hotel lounge bar for a M&G. You can always go to one of the clubs later in the night.

I'd say Thursday do Vanity - it was awesome and also doesn't get over busy, where as from what everyone says Tao gets very crowded, which could be awkward with a large group.
Friday go to XS - it's the best club.

Hey guys, thanks for the feedback.

@ Kori, that's a really great idea (the sharing memory thing), I checked out revolution looks pretty cool as a hang out/ grab a few drinks spot.
So im thinking wednesday we'll do dinner somewhere (any suggestions for a quiet, but still somewhat upbeat place would be great), followed by revolution, and possibly wasted space if people are up for it (i thought i read somewhere it takes a while for it to get filled up...)

I think we'll stick to Tao on thursday even though its crowded, because I've heard that's the best night, and a lot of the group has never been, plus hopefully having a table keeps it from feeling like your being smothered.
Friday- Definitely the palms then. I've read somewhere that you can get a pass to both ditch and the palms clubs for one price? is that true?

Once again thanks guys, the suggestions have really made this trip look like its gonna be a great way to honor my bro's memory.

Hindu... I too really like koris idea and also what dnix said... last april when we did Jet on a friday night and with the economy being really bad we asked our host for any deals he could give us for our group of twelve... remember that clubs are willing to give out deals on their slower nights Sunday-Thursday... so he gave us a buy2 get1 at jet... and on top of that we did our dinner date at Stack (which is also inside mirage and is also owned by the same company that owns jet, The Light Group) and he gave us all free appetizers which was really nice and were really good...

I was also curious what your group make up is? guy girl ratio...

tao is definitely an intimate experience because its so packed and i think you will have a good time if you have a table in a decent location... youll have to ask others who have done tables there...

Last july i recall the palms wristbands for friday day and night running 60 bucks...

good luck irl and take some pics for us imo

i just got back from Vegas and went to Tao on thursday in a group of 10, it was amazing... one of the best clubs/nights i've experienced. and i agree with you, the bottle prices do make a difference, we got a couple of grey goose magnums at 700 each which seemed fairly reasonable compared with the botle prices at other clubs

@dogs
Yeah, i thought Kori's idea was great.
The group is going to be around 20 people between 21-24 yrs, and about 50:50 between guys and girls, but it may be leaning a little more towards more girls coming.

I look out for some bottle deals at one of the slower nights for a club, see if i can get something like you did at JET, considering we are a pretty big group and were brining probably like 10-12 girls to the club.

and I most definitely will take pics!
